14, Dock Fort
The lights are on the third day and the chickens are on the fifth day, which is when men are studying.
After feeding the dark horses in the stable, Bai Gui packed his schoolbag and rushed towards the direction of the ancestral hall.
The Lu family is near the entrance of the village, and because it is a wealthy family, it covers a lot of land.
You can still see the torches left yesterday and the three or four villagers patrolling back and forth. When you arrive at the school, you will hear the officials in the Xiamen House in the east where they are talking about affairs, and the lights are also on in the adjacent Mr.'s dormitory.
"The walls of this castle must be built and guard against wolves, otherwise it will cause panic. We can patrol yesterday, but it is clear that we can exhaust people to death. If we hold a baby, no matter whether it is your house or the forehead, who doesn't feel sorry for..."
Bailu Village is protected by a fort wall made of earth.
It’s just that it’s been disrepair for a long time. There is a gap to the east and a gap to the west. If you kick it hard, the earthen wall will collapse.
"It's not okay to build a fort. It's cold and cold, can't you dig out the kiln soil..."
"Besides, the county explicitly ordered that the forts be repaired, and whoever repairs them will be demolished?"
Lu Zilin's voice was very loud and loud.
If a fort was built, he would have to pay the money, his family and the Bai family, and the other villagers would be strong and labor-intensive.
He is not afraid of spending money. He uses local materials to build the fort, and only uses manpower to manage food. He is a fort built for the village, not a single household, and no one would think about making money from it.
However, the kiln soil has now grown frozen soil and cannot be dug.
The Guanzhong Plain belongs to the Loess Plateau in a broad sense. The loess here are delicate and like flour. Dig a cave from the plateau, which is about ten meters away from the surface. The soil is taken to obtain the kiln soil, not the humus soil on the surface. The soil cannot build a house. Once the house is built, it is easy for grain and grass roots to sprout and the walls will be destroyed.
Use a winnowing basket to sieve the kiln soil, so you don’t have to steam the soil anymore, just tamp it.
Although it is cold and it is difficult to make kiln soil, it can still be done by using manpower.
But the key question is, who dares to build a fort?
It is said that it is famous fort, but it is actually a famous fort during the Southern and Northern Dynasties!
The fort, also known as the fort, was formed during the Tianfeng period of Wang Mang and was a civilian defensive building. At that time, the north was famine and the world was in turmoil, so wealthy families built the fort camps in order to protect themselves. Emperor Guangwu of Han, Liu Xiu, ordered the destruction of the fort, but it was repeatedly banned.
By the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the north was destroyed, and the forts expanded and spread. The aristocratic clans gathered in the forts and yards, and guarded them in danger, so as to avoid the enemy's robbery.
The fort in Bailu Village was built during the military chaos in the late Ming Dynasty, and was later destroyed by the Qing government.
In order to maintain its own rule, it was impossible for the Qing government to allow local governments to build docks. Whoever dares to build docks is to be punished for the crime of treason!
"The New Party in the South is having a happy life. The Qing Dynasty has not been alive for a few years. I heard that someone in Yaojiazhai has occupied the mountain and become a bandit. Good guy, about thirty guns, three hundred heroes..."
There was a rough voice that suppressed the extreme bottom.
They are all fellow clans, so there is no need to worry about someone reporting it.
"You dare to say this? The bandits in the south are so fierce, and there are the Nian Army in Anhui Province and Shandong Province! Boxers! The Rakshasa Kingdom invaded from the west, but wasn't it still being packed by Zuo Zongtang? Judging from the forehead, the court has been still long..."
"Jiaxuan, you are the patriarch. Can you give us a correct statement? Will you practice it?"
"this……"
The meeting room was silent for a long time.
When Bai Gui passed by, his footsteps were very light, and there was snow on the ground, so no adults in the official office discussed the matter noticed him.
He stopped for a while, then shook his head, walked away without saying much.
The position is humble and the words are light!
There is no reborn person who shows great power and makes suggestions. Then everyone looks at him with admiration and bows to him, and he has an unparalleled prestige for a while.
This kind of thing is possible, but the possibility is very small.
Just like most children, it is difficult to convince parents with reason.
Let's talk about it...
This fort or not is a suggestion, but if it is really surrounded by the government..., it is a scapegoat. Didn't you see Lu Zilin, who had always wanted to compete for the position of patriarch with Bai Jiaxuan and wanted to let Bai Jiaxuan say something?
At this time, the Qing government was much more open-minded than when he first entered the pass, and its control over the people also decreased, so it would not be punished for treason. However, other charges were not good.
...
"It seems that I was the first to go to school today, and I could be two quarters of an hour earlier than others."
Bai Gui was immediately more happy in body and mind, and he swept away the feeling of sleepiness of getting up early.
Because it was dawn just now, the light outside was not bright, and the school was pitch black.
I want to reshape my personality in this short period of time and let others change myself.
This first small step is to learn the first time you arrive every day!
The literary style in the north is not strong, and Bailu Village is another small village. No matter how strict the family tutoring is, it is not as good as the inner tutoring of later generations. Bai Gui only regained the attitude of preparing for the college entrance examination in later generations.
He pushed open the door and walked in.
The school is located in the ancestral hall. Although there are some precious charcoal, candles and items left by the school students, it is not locked on the door.
First, the gentleman's dormitory is here, and there is also a lame man in charge of the gatehouse. Second, although there are hundreds of families in Bailu Village, if someone dares to be a thief and steals things from the school, it will undoubtedly be a tyrant!
Because the children who can enter the school are well-invested at home.
The last point is that this is the ancestral hall.
Although Bailu Village is divided into two surnames, some with Bai and some with Lu, in fact, hundreds of years ago, the two families took Hu as their surname, and the village was not here, but was close to Zishui. After the flood, they moved to the hillside of Bailu Village and met the white deer that walked out of the fields. All the disasters disappeared. Where it walked, the toads, centipedes, scorpions and other harmful substances in the ravine were all dead. The affected crops had produced food. The blind old lady was regained her light and could step on the spinning machine and spinning thread...
It is unlikely that superstitious villagers will steal in front of their ancestors.
"Brother Zhou?"
"Why are you here?"
As soon as Bai Gui pushed the door open, he saw Zhou Yuan sleeping at the corner, and immediately exclaimed, a little surprised.
"Ah..., it's you?" Zhou Yuan, who lit the light with a fire snatch and put on glasses again, glared at Bai Gui angrily, "There is a wolf disaster outside. Do you say I am a foreign village, dare to rush back?"
The Zhou Yuan family is a wealthy family and rich man in Pangjia Village, Nanyuan.
Pangjia Village and Bailu Village are three or four miles away, and you can go back after almost half an hour.
“This is also…”
Bai Gui suddenly realized that after the wolf disaster, he naturally stayed in the school to stay overnight.
"Actually, I have been staying in the school." Zhou Yuan pointed to the bedding and yawned, "It's winter now, it's dark early, I usually stay in the school, but I've been back for a day or two in the days you came."
"Everyone knows this."
He added another sentence.
"Then do you know the fort repair in Emen Village?" Bai Gui suddenly became alert. Zhou Yuan did not stay at the other people in Bailu Village. Obviously, Bailu Village should not have any relatives or acquaintances he was close to. Who knew if he would report it to the county when he heard about this. If he didn't say he would go to the county and go to the security chief to report it, Bailu Village would not be able to take it.
"Look, you're so scared, how could you be?"
